KUI-Expensive or Ghost??

KUI-has two pronunciation in Hokkien & Mandrin.
  1. Kui-pronounced as kkuii means
  • "Ghost" in Hokkien
  • "Expensive" in Mandrin
2. Kui-pronounced as gui with lighter pressure
  • "Expensive" in Hokkien
  • "Ghost" in Mandrin
See? It's vice versa. Hahahah.. I happen to notice this while chatting with my mom. Well, apparently, she has problem with proper pronunciation of Hokkien, so, it's kinda funny. But well, she's a genius to give me this inspiration. Hahahah..
